Wow.. Almost Cry..

I went to look for a gynaecologist for the whole day yesterday. Mom brought me to the medical center and for some reasons, they kept me waiting for hours.

Initially, after urine testing, they confirmed that I am pregnant. I know I was pregnant (I tested the DIY Pregnancy Kit) since few days ago! Then, they asked me a lot of questions, like I was a refugee or something. They asked me if I was a citizen there, whether or not I was going to deliver my baby in the States.

Well, I told them I was just a visitor on vacation, and I would be going to deliver my baby in my home country, Malaysia. They then asked me why I needed to see a doc! Well, I just wanted to know what I needed to do and prevent. I knew nothing about pregnancy, it was my first time! Hello??

To my utmost amazement, they told me that they couldn't register me and I needed to talk to the Social Security Consultant. Why the hell did I need the SSC? I wasn't an illegal immigrant here.. Anyway.. I just left the center and looked for another doc.

Finally, I came to this private clinic.. I met Dr Nyein. She was a very nice and soft mannered lady. She told me I was already two months pregnant and she would do an ultrasound for me. At first, I couldn't see a single thing when she told me that's my baby. And she was like.. maybe it was too small I couldn't see it.. So she tried another method. There you were little J!!! I saw a Doraemon like shape figure through the ultrasound and she told me that's my baby! So cute!! He even has his own heart beat!! My heart was so touched and amazed at that moment. I was so speechless.. and full of excitement. I wished hubby was around to share this moment with me.

The picture attached is how little Jayden looks like when he was 2 months old in my womb.. :)
